Review of Centralized Rx filling Policy and procedures is to be done how often?

• A. Biannually
• B. Annually
• C. Quarterly
• D. Monthly

Answer: (B)

Policies and procedures for centralized Rx filling should be reviewed on an annual basis. This timing helps ensure the procedures stay current with changing federal and state regulations, labeling and dispensing requirements, privacy and safety standards, and any updates to workflows or automation. An annual review provides a reliable cycle for incorporating regulatory updates, conducting staff training, and documenting compliance. More frequent reviews (monthly or quarterly) are typically reserved for ongoing monitoring or rapid-change areas, while biannual reviews can risk missing timely changes.
